Klim Clothing

Great service as ever from SBS. Bought this as an upgrade to the level 1 that comes with my vest. I always go for D3O armour where I can as it’s a brand/products I can trust. Well worth the investment.

I recently bought the Marrakesh jacket and this convinced me I had to have the matching trousers (pants).

Recently purchased to go with the jacket I bought last year. I’m 6 foot tall, 16st. Would normally buy 36 inch waist stuff. Got the XL and fit perfect.
Wore them in warm weather and opened all the zipped vents. Worked well. Haven’t ridden in rain yet but I’m sure they’ll be great and dry!

This is my second purchase of the excellent mid-ankle Klim Outlander, the first having served me 25k odd miles where the gear change reinforcement patch was beginning to wear a bit too thin and the patina tarnished from salt staining over three winters of heavy riding.

1. The BOA fastening system (as used on ski boots) is so easy and quick to get the boots on and off and allows you to tighten securely but at the same time comfortably - a real pleasure to use.
2. The grip is fantastic for all types of road surfaces wet and dry, including forest trails and green laning.
3., Being Gortex they keep your feet dry.
4. I especially like the ‘clever by design’ mixture of leather and synthetic materials giving the boot an extremely comfortable fit from the off and adds to their great styling.
5. I’m usually a size 10.5 inches for shoes, trainers etc and found the Euro size 46 is perfect - noting that is one size up hence not true to size. Come supplied with a spare insole which the spec states allows for a more flexible fit if required.
6. When off the bike, they are very easy to walk around in and give the feel and visual impression of a normal (great) quality hiking boot. The subtlety designed gear-change reinforcement patch is an especial highlight feature for comfort.

Yes the Outlander is relatively expensive but worth every penny and I can’t fault them.
Excellent ‘try on before you buy’ service from SBS and shout out to the always helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly staff at the Leeds store. Highly recommended.
